Hi!

Last June, I installed Vista Beta and bought Microsoft USB wireless Keyboard
and Mouse 6000.
The Screen saver and Power options did not work.
The same problem with Vista RC1.
The same problem with with Vista RC2
The same problem with Vista RTM Ultimate.

But, since yesterday night, it works . . . at last!

The only thing I installed yesterday is this update coming from Windows
updates:

Microsoft - Other Hardware - HID Non-User Input Data Filter

Installation date: 2007-02-05 20:13

Installation status: Successful

Update type: Optional

Microsoft Other Hardware software update released in January, 2007

And it works!!!!

Have a nice day!

P.S. At last, I see the beautiful Bubbles screen saver!

Randor,

Dumb question here, but did you get this update manually from the Microsoft
web site or through the automatic Windows update? If you got it from the
Microsoft web site, could you pretty please post a link here? I am having
the same problem and none of the solutions (one of which is related to the
link Ramesh has posted) have worked thus far. And I have been unable to find
anything like what you posted below on Microsoft's web site.

Thank You!
Jess
